Note: This folder displays product sales statistics from invoice history. Products that have been recoded by Product Recode Merge Execution (ibis_rm82) are NOT recoded in invoice history. This is because in the event of having to reprint a customer's invoice, the reprinted invoice must reflect the product codes as they were on the original invoice. If you wish to view statistics for a product that has been recoded (and therefore no longer exists in the inventory master file), the Options menu includes an option to 'View Recoded Products'. When this option is selected, a product code that only resides in the invoice history file can be entered.

Warning: If a product code has been reused in Products (ibis_ici1.im13), then sales statistics from invoice history will represent all sales ever made using that product code.

The following list defines every field on the invoice lines by product panel:

• Enter or select from the query a product code in the product field. You can also use the VCR buttons to scroll through the list of existing products. Once a product code is entered, the product's first and second descriptions from the Products table automatically displays below the product field, and all the invoices from history for the product-customer combination display in the list box.

• You can start the list box with a specific invoice number by entering the invoice number in the invoice field located in the right hand corner of the list box.

• The list box displays all invoices that have been through the invoice cycle (and are now in invoice history). There are 11 columns of information in the list box:
  • Invoice
  • Date
  • Shipped
  • Unit Price
  • Price Type
  • Per
  • Discount
  • Extension
  • GP%
  • Cost
  • Order Type
